A Few Links - getting ready for the education forum!
Submitted by saraneppl on Tue, 02/09/2010 - 12:06pm
A few noteworthy tidbits from the expanse of the internet:
- League of Education Voters is keeping track of what's going on in the legislature's current session with regard to education on their Education Reform 2010 page - not so you don't have to, but so it's much easier. With categories like "Hot Education Bills", "Recent Press" and a list of resources, LEV's created an easily navigable collection of information and opinion about education reform in 2010. (LEV's Lisa Macfarlane, Director of External Affairs, is on our upcoming panel.)
- Did you know Scott Oki (also a panelist) has a new book out? Titled Outrageous Learning, the book's website says: "In this thought provoking new book, Oki describes the ills facing public schools and coolly applies the same frank, no-nonsense analysis that made him one of the most successful top executives at Microsoft and a recognized leader in the technology world."
If you find this topic as important and timely as we, don't miss the discussion on February 24. Additionally, we're putting the final touches on our 2009 Community Matters Campaign Final Report - the campaign focused on education and economic opportunity - and when it's ready, it will be available on our website. Coming soon!
